Dermot Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Which video games give you the sorest hands, fingers, knuckles, etc.?For me, the games that stand out most in my memory have been Super Mario RPG (the first one - with that Mario jump attack timing), Final Fantasy VIII (the TV ad for the game even lampshaded this ), and F-Zero Maximum Velocity (especially when played on emulator with my PlayStation controller).I'd also heard that Mario Party (the first one) caused countless repetitive stress injuries such that Nintendo started distributing ergonomic gloves to people who had bought the game, but I've never played Mario Party myself.

Guest Mr. Mario Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I'd also heard that Mario Party (the first one) caused countless repetitive stress injuries such that Nintendo started distributing ergonomic gloves to people who had bought the game, but I've never played Mario Party myself.The tug-O-war mini-game was the big reason why Nintendo started distributing gloves, I've gotten a blister on my palm because you're supposed to rotate the control stick fast before you lost 15 coins or 5 coins and trust me, that was a bad blister.ANYWAY...Banjo-TooieRacing canary-Mary in cloud cuckooland is a pain in the a** because you have to press the A button as fast as you can which for some reason, canary-Mary always wins unless you're crazy fingers. Luckily you can cheat by pausing the game to rest your fingers.Diddy Kong Racing 64Same as Banjo-tooie, it's impossible to beat T.T in time trials without pressing the A button fast, I know you're supposed to hold it but thats a cheat that'll speed up your car a bit then usual, but you have to collect bananas to increase your speed otherwise you lost for nothing.

Dermot Posted June 28, 2010 Author Share Posted June 28, 2010 You know the funny thing about Super Mario RPG? Though it made my fingers really sore, it also made my hands the strongest they'd ever been during that time. My piano playing was fantastic and my hands had more stamina and strength than they'd ever had. Super Mario RPG on a SNES controller is great therapy for pianists. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
